  • you say it would not work on a bicycle style so what about two coils on either forward rear part of the wheel?? do you think that might work theyed have to be big

  • From what I've seen, Rodin Coils can produce excellent rotation of many different types of magnets in many configurations - bedini style, DC pulse motors, sine-wave signal generators, and simple 120VAC 60Hz. If the Rodin Coil(s) were to be scaled up, and your current/voltage also, then you could probably rotate just about anything magnetic that is on an axle (or freespinning). So yes, I think it could work on a larger scale.

  • If you can get the ball to spin AND rotate, it's gyrating action at a sufficient speed should levetate.

  • You'll see levitation in my 'rotating sphere in water' video - when it climbs up to the inner wall of the coil, I could lift the coil and the magnet levitates while rotating. JamieButurff has more detailed videos with this.

  • that sounds like the Jetson's little breifcase UFO.

  • could some one please dumb the concept down and tell me why these rodin coil's moving little pieces of metal around are getting everyone's rock's off? i don't see the application

  • The bifiler rodin coil has 24awg on both windings...correct? Then there would be less resistance in the trigger part of the ssg circuit. correct me if i'm wrong. Is that why comwarrior is suggesting a 1k resistor in series with the diode? On another subject could you measure the field (lines of force) surrounding the RC with iron filings or ferofluid to visualize the field effect around the RC? Marco Rodin suggests a perfectly ballanced field. he also says to use non-insulated wire. GO FIGURE!

  • Hi CW, I blew my 4242 with this setup, and if I'm not careful you're right, the 5353 will roast itself too (the heatsink it's on gets wikkid hot).

    I do have the 4001 diode across E-B on the tranny, and did a quick test with my 1K/5W res. which I wasn't able to get magnet spinning BUT the coil went resonant and the cap charge went from 7v up to 147V in seconds.

    Thanks for the tip, I'm going to keep testing variations on that! I think I may need bigger diodes, too.

  • apologies, i should have warned about the more weird effects on some systems...

    to get it to resonate yet more, remove the diode completely... but that may overload your tranny look at the technical specs for emitter to base breakdown voltage...

    i removed that diode on mine and adjusted my core density to stop it self oscilating...

    sometimes a small amount of lenz can be usefull... but most of the time its a waist of energy...

  • i'm surprised you havn't blown that 5353... then again i not looked it up...

    I'm wondering (provided your using a diode from the emitter to the base) if you'd get any speed diference if you put a 1K resister in series with the diode...

    The diode prevents a reverse voltage from the trigger coil from killing the transister/FET...

    This effectively causes a short in the trigger coil and concequently causes lenz effect... (which slows the ball or wheel down)
